Claim

My sheep hear my voice, per Calvinism, refers to the (claimed) fact that unsaved (yet elect) will necessarily, on hearing the gospel, get saved.

Refuting Calvinism

Paul heard the gospel when Stephen was stoned. Paul was one of the elect, per Calvinism - even wrote the Calvinist proof text used for predestination of some sinners to salvation in Eph 1, and wrote Rom 9. Yet Paul did not get saved when he heard the gospel. This contradicts the claim, and invalidates and disproves the claim. (The method is proof by contradiction.)

Supporting Calvinism

Perhaps Paul was not ready when he heard the gospel the first time(s).
