Matthew 13:27

Whether celestial or earthly servants is not stated, but from what follows they are more likely to be the latter. They are certainly represented by those good people who are often wondering that God suffers the evil doers to remain in the world. "Didst thou not sow good seed?" implies that the Lord is not responsible for the wicked works of wicked men. "He created man upright, but he has sought out inventions." When the world and man were created it was all "good," without any admixture of evil.
