In two words: sola scriptura!

Everything else follows from that fundamental truth:

1.The closing of the canon
2.Therefore The cessation of the revelatory gifts. Jude 3, John 16:13, 1 Cor 13:10 etc
3.Therefore the cessation of the confirmatory attestations to that new revelation i.e. Signs and Wonder 2 Cor 12:12 Heb 2:3

Lot of small steps in between, and lot more to be discussed, but that's really the main hills of the cessationist position.
