Caroline, I don't think you understand Terry's comments at all.  The list 
you gave makes this abundantly clear.

Terry is expressing what Jesus Christ taught in the following passage:

John 10:2-5
(2) But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
(3) To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth 
his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.
(4) And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the 
sheep follow him: for they know his voice.
(5) And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they 
know not the voice of strangers.

And also consider:

John 10:27
(27) My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:

Being led of the Spirit is not at all like you described.  It is not blind 
obedience to some inner voice that leads to joyless living.  Just the 
opposite.  It leads to a life of great joy and liberty that this world 
simply cannot comprehend.  This life is available to everyone who repents 
and believes the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Peace be with you.
David Miller.
