Why do my expired subscriptions keep renewing?

if I have a subscription that expires due to non-payment, if I don't go in and cancel it, . . . . , the expired subscriptions will renew automatically.

1.

You need always to cancel that subscription in time.

If the invoice has to do with an app that has a subscription associated with it, see -> Delete apps on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch -> Delete apps on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support

• If you delete an app, it doesn’t cancel in-app subscriptions that you might have. While deleting an app, you might see a Cancel Subscriptions option. Learn how to cancel your subscriptions.

If you don't want to continue a subscription you need always to cancel that subscription in time, see the following Apple articles:
