We just submitted the divorce a few weeks ago. We have 2 kids together. He is not talking to me in person just over text. He told me over text I have to move out my the end of the month. If I don’t he will call the police, he said he has the right to kick me out since he has always paid for the rent and bills. He told me I can’t take the girls until I have a place to stay. If I leave the house do I loose my right as a parent? What can I do?

He can not kick you out of the marital home. Until the courts/mediator decide who will get the home you may stay there. He can as well. If it were me I would find another apt in the same area so that the kids can continue at their school.

Literally everything that he has said to you is a lie. I would recommend that if at all possible you get yourself a consult with an attorney, because seriously, he is lying through his teeth.

No, he can't kick you out of the marital home. I'd stay put until you have temporary orders.

Please tell us you have an attorney and are not trying to do this DIY. If you are not represented by an attorney, get one.

Or at least, don't leave without the kids if you've been the primary caregiver and wish to continue to be.

If you move out of the house without the children, your parental rights will not be terminated.

However, if you move out of the house without the children, when it comes to determining physical/residential custody, the status quo of them living with the other parent will be taken into consideration. It makes it more likely that your husband will be awarded physical custody, and you will have visitation.

This sounds like an emotionally abusive relationship. Please look up domestic violence resources in your area.
