AB Traditional Christologies have focused attention on the question of Jesus' beatific knowing. On the other hand, recent explorations into Spirit Christology raise different questions about his affectivity. Both issues highlight a concern with Jesus' psychological experience. The present article proposes that both these issues can be fruitfully examined through the lens of the psychological analogy for the Trinity. In particular, Bernard Lonergan's developments of the analogy drawing as they do on the experience of grace, shed a new and helpful light on the question of Jesus' knowing and loving. This approach alleviates some of the more problematic aspects of the traditional approach to Jesus' beatific vision, while also providing a more solid trinitarian basis for Catholic devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
