It's a chronology problem.
Mid Acts Dispensationalism takes its primary understanding from the salvation of Gentiles....from mid-way through Acts....obviously.
The problem with that is that Luke recorded the works (and words) of Acts as they occurred in Paul's first and second missionary journey's.
Of course, that is not where the works of Paul stopped. Paul continued writing doctrine to these churches, many of which he himself established, much after his missionary journey's were completed. And even, right up until the time of his death. 2 Timothy 4:6
Therefore, any fundamental doctrines....such as the suspension of prophecy would have been recorded in the Epistles to these churches.
They are not. At least as far as I can tell.
In fact, it sure seems to me that the opposite is true. Paul continues to write as if the Day of the Lord is at hand, or could be at hand at any moment.
