The Earth would have to be a lot closer to the sun to make any difference. Every year, as the Earth goes around its orbit it gets a couple million miles closer to the sun, and then a couple million miles farther away.

If you moved the Earth close enough to the sun, it would get warmer, but that would have to be many million miles.

-- The Earth's orbital period would be shorter, so it would take fewer days

to make a year.

-- The average temperature everywhere on Earth would be higher.

-- The sun would appear bigger in the sky.

-- So total solar eclipses would be impossible, and the best we would ever see

would be annular ones.

-- High tides would be higher.

-- Low tides would be lower.

The Earth would be completely destroyed. However, everything and everyone would burn up before the Earth ever contacted the sun. Also, the sun would not "come hurling against the Earth" for any reason. The the Earth could possibly be pulled closer into orbit with the sun, at which point many animals and plant species would immediately go extinct, depending on how much closer Earth got to the sun (AUs)
