I've read that you believe Jesus was not crucified and killed, but rather Jesus was swapped out with a look-alike on the cross and raised to straight to God at the moment he would have died...
[Qur'an 4.157] ...they did not kill him nor did they crucify him, but it appeared to them so (like Isa) and most surely those who differ therein are only in a doubt about it; they have no knowledge respecting it, but only follow a conjecture, and they killed him not for sure.
This (as we both know) contradicts Biblical scripture, and I know you are taught that the explaination is "because someone changed the original scriptures of Jesus's Apostles". What I am having trouble understanding is that in the Qur'anic story of Jesus, he appears to be saying that he will die, and THEN be raised to life...
[Qur'an 19.33] And peace on me on the day I was born, and on the day I die, and on the day I am raised to life.
How do you explain this to a non-Muslim?

How interesting...the Bible contradicts the true message of God? All the other prophets messed up somehow? ***sigh***
[Qur'an 10.94] But if you are in doubt as to what We have revealed to you, ask those who read the Book before you; certainly the truth has come to them from your Lord, therefore you should not be of the disputers.
What does THAT mean to you?

FIRST: Muslims' Holy Book doesnt say someone else was substituted in Jesus place. What is says is, the people formed the impression that he was exected.
SECOND: just because Jesus acknowledges that he will die doesn't mean it has to be on a cross. He was just affirming a simple basic truth: everyone will die and everyone will be raised to life again to come before the Almighty Creator, who will inform them the truth of all they used to do.

Jesus is coming back and will die a natural death!! he will be raised as we ALL will be raised when it's time for our judgment!!
see every single one of us ever since humanity started will be resurrected on the day of judgment to stand in front of God and receive his/her reward/punishment.
the second verse you mentioned CLEARLY speaks to those who disbelieve in God, you know! ATHEISTS/PAGANS?!! lol
God is speaking to them and telling them to believe in the Quran and if they have a doubt ask those who received previous messages from the Lord!! i dont see nothing wrong here!!?!
we know Christians believe in God, but you can't tell me that Christians themselves cant seem to agree on whether Jesus is God or the son of God! too many sects and too much differences!! and you know that.
the whole point is Jesus was neither God nor the son of God and if you believe that, it's not the end of the world for you believe me!!
Read on my friend read on and God's willing if you are truly seeking the right path that you will find the right path, read with an open mind and an open heart and ask GOD to guide you!!!
and god knows best!!
peace

Jesus is referring to the day he dies in the future after he has returned. He will then die a natural death. every soul must face death before the day of regret

"And peace on me on the day I was born, and on the day I die, and on the day I am raised to life."
"The day I die" refers to the day of his physical death from this world. i.e. after he returns he will live for forty years, then die a physical death.
"The day I am raised to life" refers to the Day of Resurrection on which we all will be raised up and be questioned about our actions and deeds.

Well actually it is Bible which is contradicting the True Message of God.
Thats why Quran had been sent with all correstion of all mistakes PEOPLE made with previous scriptures..
