There are many way to open a plastic jar with a stuck lid, however, each method depends on the type of lid the jar has. For a jar that just won't open, sometimes stretching a large rubber band around the outside of the lid allows for extra grip. Sometimes it is helpful to hand the jar off to someone who is strong in order to open it.

Heat it by running it under the hot tap, or pour boiling water over it, being careful not to scald yourself in the process.
