"…; therefore, .../... and therefore …"?

"God loves and values everyone; therefore, we must not insult, injure, or dishonor any human being."
God loves and values everyone and therefore we must not insult, injure, or dishonor any human being.

May I substitute the coordinating conjunction "and" for the punctuation mark "semicolon," please?
