No, Earth will never get sucked into a black hole.
It it did, it would be destroyed, but there is nothing special about that. If it got sucked into the Sun it would get destroyed too. Earth is not in danger of being sucked into the Sun, and not in danger of getting sucked into a black hole either.

Oh, one more thing, the Earth will be consume by the Sun in about 5.5 Billion years, according to a NOVA program on the Universe. Are your bags packed yet?
