Rom 12:3(3-5) For I am saying through the grace which is given me, to
everyone who is among you, not to be thinking more highly of himself, above
that which the necessities in the nature of the case impose upon him to be
thinking, but to be thinking with a view to a sensible appraisal of himself
according as to each one God divided a measure of faith. For even as in one
body we have many members but all the members do not have the same function,
thus we, the many, are one body in Christ, and members severally one of
another.

Rom 12:6(6-8) Having therefore gifts differing according to the grace given
us, whether that of prophecy, prophesy according to the proportion of faith;
or serving, exercise that gift within the sphere of service; or teaching,
within the sphere of teaching; or he who exhorts, within the sphere of
exhortation; the one who distributes of his earthly possessions, in the
sphere of an unostentatious simplicity; the one who is placed in a position
of authority, with intense eagerness and effort; the one who shows mercy,
with a joyous abandon.

None of these gifts are spoken of as Should’ve.

• None of them mention signs, wonders, miracles, healings, or tongues.

ceased after the gospel was already confirmed by them:

Have you heard the good news Christ died for our sins (†), and God
raised Him from the dead?

That Christ died for our sins shows we're sinners who deserve the death
penalty. That God raised Him from the dead shows Christ's death
satisfied God's righteous demands against our sin (Romans 3:25; 1 John
2:1-2). This means God can now remain just, while forgiving you of your
sins, and saving you from eternal damnation.

On the basis of Christ's death and resurrection for our sins, call on
the name of the Lord to save you: "For 'everyone who calls on the name
of the Lord will be saved.'" (Romans 10:13, ESV)
