I only remember the beginning it starts of with I believe a husband coming home to find his wife and kids have been murdered and are positioned in front of Jesus in their living room in a praying position

Think you're looking for hideaway - good movie... here's a snippet..

After killing his mother and sister and ritualistically arranging their bodies as a sacrifice to Satan, Devil worshipper "Vassago" (Sisto) invokes a Satanic verse in a room filled with candles and Satanic imagery. He then commits suicide by throwing himself onto an athame in order to damn his soul.
