Jehovah

Jehovah — the Lord Jesus Christ who speaks the revelations

Verily thus saith the Lord: It is wisdom in my servant David W. Patten, that he settle up all his business as soon as he possibly can, and make a disposition of his merchandise, that he may perform a mission unto me next spring, in company with others, even twelve including himself, to testify of my name and bear glad tidings unto all the world. Doctrine and Covenants 114:1–2

The Lord calls Twelve to testify of His name and carry the good news to the world, as He sent His original Twelve. Those who deny His name will be replaced.
