I do not believe tongues have ceased. Scripture tells us they will: not that they have. I also believe that tongues are not a requirement for salvation.
The Church is the Church, and people are people for they have not changed, so whatever was for the people back then concerning the Church applies today.
But when we are in our glorified body then we have changed, although we change by the Spirit on earth, but we are still in the flesh, and need to be edified, and have knowledge of God's word while on earth.
1Co 13:8 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.
1Co 13:9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.
1Co 13:10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.
1Co 13:11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
1Co 13:12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
1Co 13:13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.
We know there is prophesies to come in the future, and people can still relate to the Church by the Spirit what God would want them to do, and we know we must have knowledge of God's word on earth.
Of course prophesies can cease once they pass, but they do not cease from being written in God's word to know, and all scripture is given by inspiration of the Holy Spirit, and good for edifying of the person, and knowledge cannot cease for we must always have that, and God said His people perish for lack of knowledge.
But tongues might have passed away, but that did not pass away either, for there is a benefit there also, for if tongues are for the edifying of ourselves then why would they pass away, and no man can tame the tongue, the most unruliest part of the body, but if they could they could become a perfect man, and could bridle the whole body abstaining from sin, so does the Spirit tame the tongue.
Out of faith, hope, and charity, love in action, charity is the greatest, and never fails, for faith, and hope are not needed in heaven, but only on earth, so they will cease when the saints are in heaven, for if you are with Jesus.
Out of all we did on earth, love is the only thing that will go on forever.
There is no tongues in heaven, no prophesies for it is the final destination of the saints, the New Jerusalem, that will be the same for eternity, which prophesy is to show that the God of Israel is the true God, and to warn us of things, and concerning our salvation to come, and there is no knowledge of God written in a book, and faith, and hope cease, and are no more.
So I do not think that tongues have ceased, but when the saints are in heaven all the things they did on earth have ceased, but charity, love in action, will go on forever.
Which God said that He makes a new earth and heaven, and the former shall not be remembered, nor come to mind, so when the saints are at the New Jerusalem the saints, and angels will not know of anything prior to that, for all things are new, and will not remember the former earth for it is associated with sin and rebellion, which God does not want them to know about anymore.
