I live in North bend Oregon and the landlord lives in the house and rents the room to me collected rent after verbal 30

Question

Is this the law that I have to pay the full next months rent after verbal 30 day notice to be kicked out of the room I rent because he's offended by me calling the police and ambulance on him for being drunk and disorderly conduct neglecting to take care of his elderly mother who has Alzheimer's and dementia and diabetes? He told me I have to pay. He did this in January also and I am on social security disability benefits and only now receive $750.00 a month this year and I was just told again yesterday this and I have no way to save up and move out anywhere else on top of the fact he stole my electric heater and hasn't given it back because the house has no heating. No stove, no fridge provided, which I went to arrons  
furniture store and had to rent to own just to have one also I couldn't keep up with the payments so I turned it over to my ex boyfriend who finished payment for the fridge and yes it's still in the landlord's house, still no oven or proper heating system supplied.

First, a verbal termination of tenancy notice is invalid and unenforceable.  It MUST be written (not email, text, verbal, etc.); contain all the required specific information; and delivered to you either in person (NOT slipped under your door, etc.) or mailed to you regular first class mail (not certified, etc.) with an extra 3 days added for the mailing time or, if your written lease expressly provides for it, he can post it on the main entrance door to your quarters and mail you a copy by first class mail (no extra 3 days required).  That is the only enforceable way to give you a no cause termination of tenancy notice.  It must be at least 30 days notice if you have been there less than a year; 60 days if you have been there a year or more.  You owe rent for every day you are in possession, regardless of whether you also are under a termination of tenancy notice.  A landlord is required to provide adequate heat for you and failure to do so may entitle you to a reduction in rent.  If he stole your property, you can report it to the police (unlikely to accomplish much but you never know) and/or sue him for it if you believe you can prove that he stole it.  A landlord is not required to provide appliances to a tenant BUT if he does at the outset of the tenancy, then the landlord has to maintain and repair them as needed throughout the term of the tenancy.
