HEBREWS 6:4-6
4 For it is impossible for those who were once
ENLIGHTENED, and have TASTED OF THE
HEAVENLY GIFT, and were MADE
PARTAKERS OF THE HOLY GHOST,
5 And have TASTED THE GOOD WORD OF
GOD, and THE POWERS OF THE WORLD TO COME,
6 IF THEY SHALL FALL AWAY, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.
Let's take the condition one after the other
1)You must have been enlightened
To be enlightened mean to have realized, to have known or to be convinced. Remember the prodigal son when he realized he could go back to his father,the reality dawned on him and he went back to his father. Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.

2)You must have tasted the heavenly gift
It means you have received Christ(salvation) John3:16.

Then, third, "... and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost .... that means more than being born again and becoming acquainted with the Holy Spirit through His indwelling Presence (John14:16,17). It refers to being filled with the Holy Spirit—having received the baptism in the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:5;2:4).

Then, fourth, "And have tasted the good word of God.... this can't apply to baby
Christians. They haven't tasted the good Word of God.
Baby Christians are still on the "sincere milk of the word."
First Peter 2:2 tells us: "As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby."
Another translation calls it "the solid meat of God's word." In other words, babes in Christ couldn't qualify for committing the unpardonable sin because they haven't tasted the solid meat of God's Word. They're only on the milk of the word.
Only those who have had some degree of spiritual growth and who fully understand the seriousness of denying Christ and are experienced in the solid meat of the Word could be guilty of committing this sin.
The fifth condition for committing the unpardonable sin is that a person has “... tasted ... the powers of the world to come" (Heb. 6:5). "the power of the world to come" are spiritual gifts.
"Those who have tasted of the powers of the world to come are mature Christians who have the gifts of the Spirit operating in their lives or ministries."The baptism of the HolySpirit with the ensuing gifts is the earnest of our inheritance in the world to come (Eph. 1:13,14; 2 Cor.5:5).

So there are five Biblical conditions a believer needs to meet for him/her to have committed a sin unto death.
Be wise,do not be deceived
God is faithful to forgive all sins except the unpardonable sin.
Stay strong and be blessed!
I love you so much.
