Her profile says she's Presbyterian! Can't Presbyterians be JW's? :o

Yes and you proved it ;D
Everyone who commits sin also breaks the law; sin is the breaking of law.

Do you consider the ten commandments a covenant? I only see a promise attached to one of the commandments.
Scripture tells us that the law, referring to the ten commandments not the Moses law, is written on the hearts of the gentiles.
If the law is a covenant then what people is the covenant with?
If there are, as your say people outside of this covenant then and they break the law are they accountable?

No way. the Ten commandments are never written on the hearts of the gentiles. If that were true, as the civilised expanded we would have been constantly finding those who celebrated the Saturday Sabbath, and various other vestiges of the law in their cultures.
When scripture talks about having the law written on our hearts, it doesn't mean any of the scriptures as such. It is referring to our consciences. It is a righteous conscience that is in touch with God via the Holy Spirit. That is what is in the heart, and it is that which defines the difference between right and wrong.
