The above answers require you to malloc a new stream object.

public 
boolean containsByLambda(Collection c, Predicate p) {

    for (final T z : c) {
        if (p.test(z)) {
            return true;
        }
    }
    return false;
}

public boolean containsTabById(TabPane tabPane, String id) {
    return containsByLambda(tabPane.getTabs(), z -> z.getId().equals(id));
}
...
if (containsTabById(tabPane, idToCheck))) {
   ...
}
