He called apostles and prophets until we are no more children tossed about by every wind of doctrine. The apostles established doctrine so we wouldn't be tossed around. Paul says when I was a child I reasoned as a child but when I became a man I put away childish things. What did he mean?Peter was speaking of how he was in the last days in Acts of the Apostles 2:17-18.
For Hebrews 1:1-2 makes it clear that the author of Hebrews expresses how he believed how God the Father spoke to us by His Son in the last days he was currently living in.
“God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son,” (Hebrews 1:1-2).
By Acts of the Apostles 2:20, we definitely see a fast forward to a future time that has not happened yet. But this is not uncommon in prophecy for some things in a piece of Scripture to be fulfilled in one point of time while the next portion is fulfilled at a later time. So in Acts of the Apostles 2:17-18, Peter is referring to the last days from his perspective and these last days would continue on with the future end times beyond our day with the sun turning into darkness. So there is no contradiction when it comes to Cessationism (When we read Acts of the Apostles 2:17-18). The Spirit will be poured upon all flesh in the fact that both Jews and Gentiles (Cornelius) had been baptized into the Holy Spirit.
