Luke 21:25-26 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; 26 Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.
Well that would explain why they are all freaking out. Too much time watching end time prophecy videos on youtube.
Some guy showing up to calm the seas would certainly upset the business model.

For anyone who may think that the Holy Days are arcane and only for the Jews, please read the 14th chapter of Zechariah.
This chapter obviously depicts a future time when Messiah will return to the Mount of Olives (v4). After this time, Messiah will require all nations to observe the Feast of Tabernacles. Specifically if Egypt (presently a Muslim nation) does not observe the Feast, no rain will fall on the entire country until they repent.
There are many small Christian groups who observe the Holy Days today. They believe that these days depict important phases in God’s plan of salvation for all humans who ever lived.
This year the Feast of Tabernacles starts on Monday, October 17. As an example, about a half dozen of these groups will be observing the Feast in Branson, Missouri. Several groups also will be meeting in the Panama City Beach, Florida area.
