Hi there!
You have two “Home” pages because you need to configure your Reading Settings in the Front page displays section here: http://joeowoicho.wordpress.com/wp-admin/options-reading.php.
My guess is it’s currently set to Your latest posts when you should choose A static page (select below). That’s why your first “Home” page is displaying your “Blog” page.
For Front page: you can select “Home” from the drop-down menu and for the Posts page: you can select “Blog”. Then click Save Changes at the bottom of the page.
The result will be your second “Home” page content will now display on the first “Home” page. The second “Home” page menu item will then disappear.
Here’s more information on that:

Hi!
As elzrjose says, you can set your front to be a static page, displaying your second Home page.
Alternatively, if you want to keep your latest posts on your front page, this is what I recommend doing to your second Home page. Go to the Pages screen in your WP Admin dashboard
If you want to preserve the text in your second Home screen, you could copy and paste it onto a different page (possibly your About page), create a new post with it, or save it to some other location.) Then you would delete your Home page.
As a word of warning, once you delete your Home page (or any page), it is essentially gone (you can recover it within 30 days of trashing it).
If you want to go ahead and delete the page, this support doc will walk you through how to do sohttps://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/edit-pages-screen/#delete-pages
Good luck.
