No. The sun's flame is the result of the nuclear fusion of hydrogen atoms, whereas the burning of a log is the result of a combustion reaction.

When the sun burns out what will burn out with it?

The Sun will not "burn out" like a wood fire might; instead, near the end of its life, the Sun will expand into a red giant star, and will expand so much that it will engulf the planets Mercury and Venus, and possibly the Earth as well. After that, it will slowly shrink down to a white dwarf star, and will probably last for the remainder of the lifetime of the universe.That is not expected to happen for another four billionyears or so, so there's no worry for us.
