Nothing but idiotic answers tonight. The sun will become a red giant when the hydrogen has all been fused and helium fusion begins. It will expand past the orbit of Venus and possibly to Earth. If the sun doesn't engulf us, nothing will be left but a charred cinder. This will happen in about 5 billion years.
This isn't voodoo - it's called "Science". Something those thumpers have never heard of.

The earth is not going anywhere anytime soon. No, the sun will not go nova or supernova, it does not have a companion star nor does it have the mass to do that.
If nothing else happens between now and then, in 5 billion years or so, the sun will swell up as it enters its final stage of its life and it will become a red giant. The earth will be burned to a cinder and may even be consumed by the sun. If so, then the earth will cease to exist at that point.
Between now and then, however, there are a few things that could destroy the earth. A rogue planet could impact us and disintegrate our planet. A rogue black hole could gobble us up. Any wandering massive object could shift our orbit enough to send us crashing into the sun or spiraling off into space to impact a larger object of be pounded to pieces by space debris etc.
We will not destroy the earth ourselves, we lack the power to do that. We could conceivably make the earth uninhabitable, but we can't destroy it.

At this 2d in time the only asteroid with any probability, please word it extremely is an exceedingly little probability, of hitting our planet Is Apophis, which if it does hit it's going to be in April of the twelve months 2036, so 25yeara from now. The asteroid will come dangerously, yet won't hit us, to Earth in 2029 and there's a real concern that if if passes with the aid of a gravitational keyhole it extremely is going to pave the way for a collision 7 years later, so we can't be attentive to if it is going to hit until 2029 on the earliest. If this occurs then it extremely is going to hit, someplace in the international in 2036. Now i'm utilising this as an occasion, if it collided with our planet and touched down in ny i think of it extremely is estimtated that it may engulf the finished US and somewhat further away, all and sundry, fairly those interior 100miles of the blast zone will die interior seconds of impression, then interior minutes and that i propose trivialities the finished US inhabitants could die, probably even triggering the eruption of the supervolcano below Yellowstone national park, this could be a double whammy for the US and the international. If it hits interior the sea then all i can assert is god help us all, this catastrophe could substitute into international and hundreds of thousands, doubtlessly billions could die from the ensuing tsunami that it may reason, a tsunami that must be approximately 10-20feet extreme and could consume the finished international and that must be cataclysmic. Coastal components international extensive could all be effectively sunk interior an hour or 2 and we would all go through in some way. As I say this might happen If Apophis, meaning destroyer by utilising the way (destroyer of worlds?) passes interior the direction of the gradational keyhole in 2029, at which element our governments will ought to paintings out a plan to substantiate the continuity of our species, they could choose to save as many as they are able to to start lower back. God help us all.

The probability of planet earth disappearing, that is disintegration or being merged with another celestial body are very low.
even when our sun will go nova, which is estimated to happen in 5,000,000,000 years, the earth will not disintegrate, but it will become very hot and probably lose all it's surface air and water.
Maybe when the Andromeda galaxy collides with the milky way galaxy, in many billions of years, some giant star will come close to our solar system and the planets and star of our system will merge with it. but that is very far fetched.
the possibility of another celestial body, roughly the size of earth, colliding with earth is insignificant.

It will be engulfed by the sun when it loses mass and grows. The other things won't make Earth disappear, they will just kill the things on it.

earth will last forever
Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. 2I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. 3And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. 4He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away."
5He who was seated on the throne said, "I am making everything new!" Then he said, "Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true."
6He said to me: "It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To him who is thirsty I will give to drink without cost from the spring of the water of life. 7He who overcomes will inherit all this, and I will be his God and he will be my son. 8But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death."
22I did not see a temple in the city, because the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple. 23The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp. 24The nations will walk by its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their splendor into it. 25On no day will its gates ever be shut, for there will be no night there. 26The glory and honor of the nations will be brought into it. 27Nothing impure will ever enter it, nor will anyone who does what is shameful or deceitful, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb's book of life.

originally by super nova, followed by neutron star collapse, turning into a black hole !, and aproximately 27.95 billion years by your current measurement of time {and jahova's time frame of just under 30 days}. then after 1.6 billion years of the black hole gathering new fuel for the next and larger galaxy and star's of the terra sector, the next stellar big bang creatin g the new saul galaxy with 6 planets of inhabitants, and 32 without. doe's that answer your question.

Not long, people will destroy it pretty soon I think, unless we make some changes.
