I guess you are right to a point here....it can give them a false sense of security if they think praying a sinners prayer is sealing salvation. But I do not think anyone has to believe the oneness of God to go to heaven. One every knee will bow and confess. Some do it now, some will then.

MOW asked me the question yesterday if I believe a trinitarian that had been baptized in Jesus name and had recieved the HG was saved.
my answer is yes. I dont think a person necessarily needs to have a complete understanding of God to be obedient to scripture. IMOH it is the obedience to scripture that is most important. I do know that some disagree with that view.
I still say that in the vast majority of cases adhearence to the doctrine of the trinity, leads one to believe they are saved well short of the biblical perscription and thus the doctrine is damnable.
