When I was still Christian, and even long after I've not been, the Gospels, and particularly the Synoptics.  What Jesus said, did, and recommended, or at least what I took to be the "spirit" of these, always took precedence for me over theological debates about what Jesus was.  Apart from a surviving appreciation of his rhetorical gifts, I came over time to profoundly dislike the content of the Pauline literature.
