understand that foreign nations are a threat to the Iroquois.
C
prove their loyalty by publicly stating that they do not follow foreign nations.

The quotation says a Lord who chooses to submit to the laws of a foreign people is no longer part of the Confederacy and loses his birthrights and claims. This means the Lords are expected to follow the Confederacy’s own laws rather than submit to foreign laws.
