This planet will end, yes, because the Sun will end as a star, in about 5 billion years I think it is. But by then Man will most likely have either destroyed itself or moved on to other planets in other places, possibly even in other substrates than organic bodies - so we'll see!

In only about 200 million years, the Earth will be so hot due to the effects of the Sun's aging that all life on this planet will be obliterated.
This world (Earth) will come to an end when the Sun becomes a red giant star in about 4 billion years and will consume the Earth.

Yes, it will. In about another 10 or 12 billion years our star will start running out of hydrogen and start burning helium. Since that's a much lower energy fusion, the temperature will drop and our Sun will cool slightly and become what's known as a 'Red Giant'. And,at that point, it will also expand until it's outer surface is somewhere between the orbits of Earth and Mars.
Goodbye Mercury, Venus, and Earth. Vaporized. And quite possibly Mars as well.

According to the Bible. Yes. Maybe that accounts for all the rush of knowledge to build a better space craft and save those deemed worthy to colonize on another planet, far away from the end forces from earth. But in that day I'm certain that any knowledge we may have stored in our memory will leave us first, then the flesh will not have knowledge of what to expect

All that began will end, or rather will have to end. How the world will end, we can not clearly speculate now, since the end of the world is not in near vicinity. And we are not really 'bothered' so to say!
Most likely, man will find alternate agenda to live and to live on!!

I'm sure it will, all good things come to an end I have no doubt that our planet will eventually be one of them.

when the sun dies, yes, but we got about 4 billion years before that
