I am referring here to the fact that first-order logic is sufficiently expressive to describe how a Turing machine works, making FOL Turing-complete and thus, as a special case, making every computation you can carry out on a computer expressible in FOL, as a first-order formula that is satisfiable iff the TM accepts the input.
