Jehovah

Jehovah — the covenant name, rendered LORD

Evil men understand not judgment: but they that seek the LORD understand all things. Proverbs 28:5

Those who seek the LORD are given understanding that the wicked lack. Seeking Jehovah is seeking Christ, the source of light and truth.

How we know: Jehovah is the premortal Christ (Abraham 1:16; D&C 110:3–4)

Atonement

He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy. Proverbs 28:13

Hiding sin never works; confessing and forsaking it brings mercy. That mercy flows from Jesus Christ's Atonement, and the Lord gives the same pattern in modern revelation.
