Just because the sun won't emit light and the light won't be needed, doesn't mean there wont' be one. The moon doesn't emit light either, but like the sun, has been given eternal ordinances by God:
Jeremiah 31:35-36 Thus says the LORD, Who gives the sun for a light by day, The ordinances of the moon and the stars for a light by night, Who disturbs the sea, And its waves roar (The LORD of hosts is His name): " If those ordinances depart From before Me, says the LORD, Then the seed of Israel shall also cease From being a nation before Me forever."Be careful not to read something into Scripture that isn't there and in the process negate other Scripture. No where do the Scriptures tell us that the sun will cease to exist, rather they will last as long as the nation of Israel is a nation before God: Forever!
Maranatha!

Thanks Amy, but you forgot these Bible verses:
Rev.21:23 "And the city [Heaven] had no need of sun.....for the Glory of God did lighten it. and the Lamb is the Light thereof." andRev. 22:5 "And there shall be no night there....neither light of the sun: for the Lord God giveth them light; and they shall reign for ever and ever.
Rev. 22:6 "And he said unto me. These sayings are faithful and true: and the Lord God of the holy prophets sent His angel to shew unto His servants the things which must shortly be done.
Rev. 22:7 "Behold I come quickly: blessed is he that keepth the sayings of the prophecy of this book."
