Accounting Report - Balance Sheet

Mortgage

We just set up account and added the balance of our church mortgage on a liability under the general fund. When I print the Accounting Fund Balances report, it shows the General Fund as negative. Any way to not have this?

Can I do that in 2 lines or will I need 4? Sorry, double entry bookkeeping just throws me for a loop... What is 'ABC'...
