GLWSSAI he uses the verb PAUSONTAI. I was wondering if anyone has done
any
research concerning Paul's purpose in changing verbs.

I believe that the difference is concern to the future life in the kingdom.
There we will not have necessity of PROFHTEIAI nor GNWSIS because He, the
lord, will be all. But, the GLWSSAI is one thing that we will have, see
Luke 16:24. The prophecy and the knowledge will be destroyed, but our
tongue will be preserved.
God bless you
