God, in Christ, became one of Adam's fallen race; died as Atonement for us [delivered for our offences, raised for our justification].
Since gorillas are NOT descendants of Adam, therefore are not included in the Atonement.
However, also as in Adam all [of his descendants] die ... but since gorillas are not descendants of Adam, therefore they do not need the Redemption which was obtained for us.
Therefore, a gorilla does not became a Christian.
However, probably they would have the same chance of getting to Heaven as would any other animals.

No because gorillas were not created in the image of God nor have souls. They are just animals. And DNA does not make a gorilla human or even close to one.

Why bother, as all animals they already follow the path that GOD wants without question so go to heaven automatically.

I don't think that is where a really smart one would want to be. But to answer your question, of course he could...if he wanted!

Probably not a really smart one. A really dumb one probably could though.

Yes, but first there would have to be missionaries who translated the gospel into a series of grunts and hand signs.

no, gorillas won't pretend to eat the flesh of their god and drink their god's blood like christains do. they're not into cannibalism like christians are.
