Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society

The Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society is a Christian organization founded in the late 19th century, primarily responsible for publishing and distributing religious literature, including the magazine *The Watchtower*. It serves as the central governing body for Jehovah's Witnesses, guiding their doctrinal beliefs, practices, and organizational structure. The society develops theological teachings, coordinates worldwide evangelism efforts, and provides resources to help members understand and follow their faith. While it does not itself form a religious congregation, its publications and leadership influence the beliefs and practices of Jehovah's Witnesses globally.
