The "If...Then.." Principle is an important Biblical concept in a healthy Christianity and one the Peter emphasizes throughout his letter. "If you have truly been born again then you will live accordingly" is a Biblical truth taught throughout the New Testament. The Books of Hebrews and James talk a lot about this for instance.
