The logic $ \mathcal L(T) $ of arbitrary first order theory T is the set of predicate formulae, provable in T under every interpretation into the language of T. It is proved, that for the theory of equation and the theory of dense linear order without minimal and maximal elements $ \mathcal L(T) $ is decidable, but can not be axiomatized by any set of schemes with restricted arity. On the other hand, for most of the expressively strong theories $ \mathcal L(T) $ turn out to be undecidable.
