The sun will not get big enough to engulf the earth for around 5 billion years. Even then the earth may be spared. However the sun will gets about 10% more luminous every billion years. Thiss will cause earth's temperature to rise to a point where all liquid water will boil off. This will happen in approximatly 1 billion years.
