Faith in mythology? The viking who sincerely believed in Odin, did his faith grant him entrance into Valhalla? No, same way the Trinitarian and his Trinitarian soteriology doesn't grant him a special place in heaven through his error.

The average Trinitarian does not think of things through a Oneness vs Trinity paradigm. When they were converted, they came to Jesus Christ, not the Trinity. They believe Jesus is God. The views of many who actually attempt to think in-depth on this subject actually mirror Oneness views. Trinitarian apologist Dr. James White laments that most Trinitarians are "modalists" without realizing it.
When a sinner in either a Oneness or Trinitarian church responds to the conviction he feels and falls in the altar repenting, he is most likely at that point thinking about Jesus as being "the Son of God". He does not understand all the in and outs of apologetics and theology. He just knows he needs to get right.
It really does seem some of you are making "perfect knowledge" a requirement for salvation.
