The kind of jesus you find is not at all open to whatever you want to see, rather, on an orderly progression as to how the authors chose to convey his character in relation to divinity. In the transition between the synoptics, and from the synoptics to john, jesus becomes increasingly divine and, thus, increasingly authoritarian. Hippy and buddy jesus movements rarely quote from john, and not for no reason.
